Activity Centre planning is at the heart of Perth’s maturation as a transit-oriented city. CLE’s designers and planners work with economists, engagement specialists and the community to create modern, dense and diverse centres.

CLE has a strong, recent record of working with proponents of multi-level aged care facilities in infill settings. These provide opportunities for people to age in place and contribute to positive change in established suburbs.

CLE has relationships with many quality building developers and architects. We efficiently and strategically guide our clients’ projects through the approvals processes of the SDAU, JDAPs and local government.

​

CLE’s recent activities in the area of commercial planning include self-storage facilities in Perth and light industrial spaces in regional WA. Our consultancy expertise makes us well placed in this practice area, whatever the location.

Education providers are looking for opportunities to improve their facilities and identify how to make better use of their property portfolios. CLE has experience with WA’s leading institutions.

​

The traditional campus model for major healthcare facilities is today augmented by localised, bespoke facilities and creative redevelopment of existing spaces. This shift demands a tailored planning and design approach.

A growing State demands land for new employment opportunities and industrial spaces. CLE’s portfolio includes many significant new industrial estates and infrastructure items across the State.

​

The WA Government’s 47% infill target is creating great opportunities and great challenges. Implementing infill in established places takes a commitment to consultation, a transparent, design-led approach and commercial awareness.

CLE is the industry leader for master-planned greenfield urban design and planning. We have forty years’ experience in this practice area and it remains a core service for our business.

​

Masterplanning is the driver for the rejuvenation of transitioning urban places. CLE can work at every stage in the process, from urban design to implementation through Redevelopment Area processes or Improvement Plans and Schemes.

The resource sector is critical to the Western Australian economy. CLE works with a range of players, with a particular focus on new and high-technology industries that require a tailored planning approach.

​

Design and planning for regional WA demands a sensitive approach. Encouraging investment, facilitating outcomes and gaining community acceptance are key challenges and CLE’s relationship-driven approach is invaluable.

​

CLE is proud to have contributed to and gained approvals for some of WA’s modern-day landmarks. Recently, we have kept the SDAU busy with numerous applications for a diverse range of proposals.

​

CLE led the design and planning work for two of Perth’s new METRONET stations, balancing market considerations with ambitions to optimise transit-oriented outcomes.

​

​

The WA planning system is complex and under continuous evolution. We support our clients by assisting with Due Diligence processes, explaining policy changes and actively contributing through our industry advocacy partners.

Future-focused industries in recycling and renewable energy often don’t have a clear planning pathway – but CLE understands what is required and we can guide our clients through the process.
